So when playwright 'Draven' bequeaths his latest play to the rural Rivervue Theatre, the stage is set for drama. Props-maven Mackenzie Russell is no fan of the Larrikin, the subject of Draven's new play. But she is a big supporter of her hometown, Brachen, where the guy is a local legend. She would no more let Brachen's reputation be trashed than she would pull on a costume and perform in Draven's latest masterpiece. Her secret stage aspirations are strictly private. But someone needs to tell that to Dylan North, the enigmatic loner sleeping rough in Rivervue Theatre's fire-escape, after he catches her running lines in the props room. Dylan just wants to keep a low profile; he knows that his rough appearance and poor language skills make people uncomfortable. Except Kenzie - with her, Dylan feels more at ease than he's ever been before and he's fast becoming her biggest fan. In more ways than one. But theatres are founded on drama and this one is packed full of secrets. Hers. His. The Larrikin's. Draven's. Secrets that if revealed could tear the town, the theatre - and Dylan and Kenzie - apart.

Download or read book The new Woman Revised written by Ellen Wiley Todd and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years between the world wars, Manhattan's Fourteenth Street-Union Square district became a center for commercial, cultural, and political activities, and hence a sensitive barometer of the dramatic social changes of the period. It was here that four urban realist painters--Kenneth Hayes Miller, Reginald Marsh, Raphael Soyer, and Isabel Bishop--placed their images of modern "new women." Bargain stores, cheap movie theaters, pinball arcades, and radical political organizations were the backdrop for the women shoppers, office and store workers, and consumers of mass culture portrayed by these artists. Ellen Wiley Todd deftly interprets the painters' complex images as they were refracted through the gender ideology of the period. This is a work of skillful interdisciplinary scholarship, combining recent insights from feminist art history, gender studies, and social and cultural theory. Drawing on a range of visual and verbal representations as well as biographical and critical texts, Todd balances the historical context surrounding the painters with nuanced analyses of how each artist's image of womanhood contributed to the continual redefining of the "new woman's" relationships to men, family, work, feminism, and sexuality.
